l woke up and was about to go up the stairs with a big stick, but he cast a Sleeping Charm again.

Jerry spotted Professor Snape, Professor McGonagall, and Madam Pomfrey running over as they dragged Professor Quirrell to the first level.

It turned out that Hermione had just now hurried into the Great Hall and yelled that a huge creature had just appeared in the cellar.
Professor Quirrell was taken aback and was subsequently seized by the enormous beast.

Apparently, Jerry is attempting to protect Professor Quirrell from the troll.
Dumbledore quickly dispatched Madam Pomfrey, Professor Snape, and Professor McGonagall.

“Mr.
Carmen, are you okay?” McGonagall looked at Jerry nervously.

Professor McGonagall places equal priority on the security of every young wizard, even though Jerry is not a Gryffindor.


“The troll is still on the first floor, and while I’m alright, I’m afraid my Sleeping Charm won’t be able to stop him for more than a few seconds.” Jerry hinted Quirrell, who was lying on the ground with his face covered in blood.

Snape gave Quirrell a skeptical look before telling Jerry in a somewhat complimentary tone, “Jerry, you did a great job.
Go return to the Great Hall with Professor McGonagall first, and I’ll go down and take care of that creature.”

“Leave Professor Quirrell with me.
I’ll take care of him.” As soon as Madam Pomfrey waved her wand toward the school’s medical center, Professor Quirrell’s body followed her thanks to her Locomotion Charm.

Similar to the Levitation Charm, the Locomotion Charm also enables items to move in response to the wizard’s thoughts while being guided by their wand.

Naturally, unlike the Levitation Charm, which may be left alone after casting, the Locomotion Spell must continuously release its magic force and cannot be too far from the wizard, as this will make it hard to control it.

“Why are you alone in the basement, Mr.
Carmen? Professor McGonagall enquired when returning to the Great Hall while harboring some reservations.

Jerry was well prepared for this inquiry as well, saying, “I was so absorbed in reading in the common room that I missed the start of the dinner party by the time I recognized it.”

He had been reading in the common area this afternoon.
Several young Slytherin wizards can sit there, and he also met Daphne and Pansy shortly before the dinner.
McGonagall gave a nod.
She had no reason to suspect anything, and she was just curious.

“Mr.
Carmen, your performance earlier was excellent.
Miss Granger and Professor Quirrell would be in danger if you hadn’t valiantly held the troll back.
I’ll give Slytherin an extra ten points for your bravery.”


Professor McGonagall has actually always been very impressed by Jerry.
She immediately recognized Jerry as a Gryffindor candidate after witnessing him courageously defend the weak and bullied in the orphanage.

Because boldness is a Gryffindor’s most valuable trait.

Unfortunately, she had not anticipated Jerry’s placement in Slytherin following the sorting ceremony .

“I appreciate it, Professor McGonagall.” Jerry answered by smiling.

Even though Snape had been quite kind to Harry, he had to agree that Professor McGonagall was a shining example of justice and fairness among all the professors at Hogwarts.

“Huh?”

After following Professor McGonagall into the Great Hall, he noticed that nobody else was there but Hermione, some Slytherin wizard, Professor Flitwick, the head of Ravenclaw, and Madam Sprout, the head of Hufflepuff.
Jerry exhaled a sigh of relief as well when Dumbledore wasn’t present.

Upon reflection, the young wizards from the other houses ought to have all gone back to their dorms under the supervision of the prefects.
Dumbledore probably went to look his Sorcerer’s Stone, which is highly likely.

Despite a minor accident in the plan, the outcome is still favorable.
Dumbledore is perhaps the lone exception.
It would be quite problematic if Dumbledore used Legilimency on him.

The likelihood, in his opinion, is not particularly high.
